I ask for the Taoiseach for an update on the Covid-19 inquiry, its terms of reference and its individual modules. I am incredibly interested in the families that lost loved ones in Dealgan House Nursing Home at the beginning of Covid-19. I think the Taoiseach met with one of the family members when he was recently in Dundalk. At least 22 lost their lives in a really desperate set of circumstances. When the Minister for Health, Deputy Stephen Donnelly, met with them recently, he spoke of how they need some sort of mechanism to provide them with the necessary answers. They have done a huge body of work through freedom of information, FOI, requests. At times, they have been pushed back by every agency, but they have put a huge amount of information into the public domain. We have to provide them with truth, justice, and the learnings needed in relation to elder care, in case we have to deal with circumstances such as these ever again. I ask for an update on that, which would be really useful.
